Ace-High Win for Akkari

Level 31 : 60,000/120,000, 15,000 ante

Nachman Berlin limped the button and Andre Akkari checked to see a {K-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{Q-Hearts} flop fall.

Akkari tapped the table, and Berlin tossed in a bet of 175,000 as Akkari cut out a call before the dealer dropped the {5-Diamonds} on the turn.

Both players checked as the {4-Diamonds} landed on the river and again both players checked. Akkari flashed an ace, and Berlin mucked his hand.

How Many Clubs?

Level 31 : 60,000/120,000, 15,000 ante

Nachman Berlin limped and Andre Akkari checked to see a {2-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{A-Clubs} flop fall.

Both players checked as the {8-Clubs} landed on the turn and Akkari led for 125,000. Berlin called, and when the {J-Clubs} landed on the river, both players checked.

From the media tower, all we could see was that Berlin held the {A-Spades}, but with five clubs on the board, the pot was chopped up between the two.
